I hate Cleveland, and I hate the Yanks. Don't really care for Boston or Anaheim. In the NL you have a Chicago team, Philly with the ex-Sox factor and Howard and Utley, Arizona has so many kids at the fact who are these guys, then hopefully the Rockies for the cinderella story. Clearly the National League interests me much much more.

NL, at least as long as my favorite player in baseball gets into the playoffs by shutting down the Rockies.

Even if the Padres don't, I'd still probably say NL. I enjoy the Phillies with Utley, Rollins, Rowand, Howard, Victorino, etc. And if the Rockies do get in, they're certainly a fun story.

There's only so many times you can watch the Yankees and Red Sox before it gets old. The NL has more fresh blood.

As people mentioned:

Phillies team with 2 ex-Sox, Rollins, Utley, Howard and Hamels.

Arizona young team with tremendous talent

That's enough for me.

Phils all the way. If you can't interested in the NL postseason, then...I just don't know what to say to you.

Both leagues should have good playoff matchups. There could be exciting games across the board. I think I've been more interested in the NL playoffs because the AL participants have been set for over a week, the NL wasn't settled until today. Everyone who is in the AL playoffs was largely expected to be there -- the Phils, Rockies, and even the Diamondbacks and Cubs were not on too many people's pre season radar. Maybe the Phils were, but their come from behind trick captured my interest. With the Sox out of it, I had been pulling for a Cub collapse, and the Rox are just a feel-good story.

I don't have a clear favorite in the AL playoffs, as long as it ain't Boston coming out on top. I know they're our division rival, but i have so many good friends who are Indians fans, I kind of hope the Tribe does well if it can't be the Sox. Same is really true for the Angels. The other AL teams are "lodge brothers" to me, and I always pull for the AL in the Series, even if its the dreaded Red Cubs or the Skankees, because AL supremacy is better for the White Sox in the long run.

If you're referring to Garica he had season-ending surgery back in June-July.

I think the NL will be more interesting to watch, only because there is no sure bet among any of them. However, the quality of play will be better in the AL, so that's my vote.

I think he was referring to Tom Gordon, though I'm not sure we really want to claim him as an ex-White Sox.

NL. There's so much fresh air in the NL, instead of the AL, which looks like the same ol' routine with the exception of the Indians. The Phillies are in for the first time in 14 years, the young and talented D'Backs are in (everybody in that lineup is like under 30), and there's the possibility of the Rockies advancing if they can beat the Padres tomorrow.

The AL playoffs have been rather boring these past 5 years. It's always the same teams. If the Rockies win tonight, all 4 NL teams in the playoffs are teams that did not make it last year. My vote goes to the NL.
